Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law
Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law (Product Code: SCL1247/018) is a buoyancy demonstration set used to prove that the upthrust on an immersed body equals the weight of the liquid it displaces, in secondary-school physics lessons. It combines a plastic bowl with a side drainage connection, a dynamometer graduated in newtons and two plastic cylinders, the full one fitting strictly into the empty one. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as a physics demonstration kit.

What Is the Archimedes' Principle Set Used For?
The classic procedure hangs the empty cylinder from the dynamometer, with the full cylinder suspended from the hook underneath, and notes the force reading in air. The full cylinder is then lowered into the water in the bowl: the reading drops because of the buoyant force, and the displaced water runs out through the side drainage connection. When students fill the empty cylinder with water, the dynamometer returns to its original reading, and because the full cylinder fits strictly into the empty one, the water added has exactly the volume of the immersed body.
Teachers can extend the lesson by collecting the drained water in a beaker and weighing it, or by repeating the test with salt water to discuss density. Hang the dynamometer from a firm stand so it reads vertically, zero it before each run, and fill the bowl up to the drain level before immersing the cylinder so that all the displaced water is captured. The set sits comfortably alongside other mechanics lab equipment in India's secondary-school physics rooms.
OEM Manufacturer
This Archimedes' principle set is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, as the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, distributors and importers buy it factory-direct, so quotations, class-set orders and questions about a replacement cylinder or dynamometer are answered by the maker itself — ask us. More about the company's background and range is on the ScienceLab company profile.
Related Lab Equipment
These items support the same buoyancy practical or the fluid lessons that follow it:
- Stand — a rigid support for hanging the dynamometer and cylinders above the bowl.
- Dynamometer — an extra force meter so several student groups can work at once.
- Balance — for weighing the water collected from the drainage connection as a cross-check.
- Pascal's Sphere — a natural next demonstration on how pressure acts in liquids.

Frequently Asked Questions
What comes in the set?
The Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law contains a plastic bowl with a side water-drainage connection, a dynamometer graduated in newtons, a full plastic cylinder with handle, and an empty plastic cylinder with handle and a hook at the bottom.
Why must the full cylinder fit exactly inside the empty one?
In the Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law the full cylinder fits strictly into the empty one, so the empty cylinder holds exactly the volume of the immersed body. Filling it with water therefore restores the original dynamometer reading, proving the principle.
What is the range of the dynamometer?
The dynamometer in the Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law is graduated in newtons, but its full-scale value is not given in our listing. Ask us through the contact page if you need the range confirmed for worksheets or a tender.
Is a stand included?
A stand is not listed among the contents of the Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law. Any laboratory stand that lets the dynamometer hang freely above the bowl will work, or the Stand linked above can be added to your order.
Who manufactures the Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law?
The Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotations for single sets or class quantities come straight from the manufacturer.
How do I look after the set?
After each class, empty and dry the bowl and cylinders of the Set to Demonstrate Archimedes' Principle/Law, store the dynamometer unloaded, and never hang more on it than its marked capacity, so the spring keeps its accuracy.
